The place emanates grandeur of a bygone era - very 80s indeed. The whole place needs a thorough refurbishment (the red marble bathroom was particularly noteworthy). That said, the staff were all very professional and friendly, valet parking, and the room was clean (as clean as a place this old can be). Great location as well - a short walk... More

The intercontinental in Adelaide is a good hotel, well located, quite, with lovely views of the Torrents River, over the city and down to the coast. It is in short walking distance to the inner city centre, museums, univercity, botanical gardens, cinema, restaurants & more. If I had to be overly critical I'd say the room could do with an... More

We stayed in a King River View Room, which was large and comfortable. Big bathroom with somewhat colourful orange/red stone tiles, but was clean and spacious. Great view over river and cricket stadium. Room was nice and quiet. Very convenient for city attractions, tram to beach (40 mins), station etc - better restaurants are about 15 min walk away to...

Comfortable, spacious rooms that are recently renovated (bathrooms maintain somewhat dated marble but everything was clean and in working order). Good bath products. Huge flat screen tv. Grateful for any early checkin on the day however when I had called the night before to confirm that this was ok, the checkin staff member was very dismissive and non committal. Don't... More

We booked the IC mostly because of the location, but also because we are Ambassador Club members and try to book IC when possible. The location IS fantastic, easy access to the bus, tram, river walks - everything we were looking for in Adelaide. Check in was hassle free, the room, while a bit dated was comfortable enough for 5... More

Room spotless, excellent location, room service prompt and yummy. Organised wakeup call and taxi without a hitch (I know this should be standard but many places can let you down.) Reasonably priced considering weekend of TDU and proximity to everything. More

We are priority members and have stayed at the Intercontinental in Bali, Bangkok, Fiji, Sydney and Manilla in the last two years. The adelaide property is not up to the usual 5 star standards. The buliding and decor is very dated and the rooms small. When we commented to the hotel manager that the club breakfast was below par (... More

Stayed for business mostly & to attend the TDU and visit family. Need to have car as Adelaide is best viewed by getting out & about. The city itself is ordinary but the bonus from this hotel is u can walk along the river to things like the zoo etc & into central markets & Chinatown for good eating options.... More

We were in town for a friend's wedding and the intercontinental was the hotel they had suggested guests should stay in. I looked at the website and wasn't particularly impressed but once we arrived we were very impressed with both the service, the cleanliness and the general condition of the hotel. Often I do not like these big hotels, especially... More
